Tennessee hosted their first two official visitors of the year this weekend and one of those in was the fourth ranked offensive guard in America in Tuscon, Arizona (Salpointe Cathlolic High School) standout Kristofer O'Dowd. For the 6-foot-5, 315 pound O'Dowd, the trip to Knoxville was a chance to see what Tennessee was really about.

"It was good trip," O'Dowd said. "I really did not know much about them before the visit. But after seeing Tennessee, they are definitely going to be a factor in my final decision. The trip only increased my interest in them. They for sure stay in the picture."
